The CCTV camera which Amaral claimed captured the image of the man carrying Madeleine.

So what is Amaral doing posing for a tabloid photo under a CCTV?

I've no doubt it's him, not a clone ! What he is doing ? Just being nice accepting to be photographed, I suppose.

At least this one is never in a rage, unlike others that we know.

For a tabloid...

And?????

Kate McCann sold her diary to a tabloid and posed many times for several, as did her husband. Is Amaral less dignified to pose for rags?!

Is there  a difference between a tabloid camera and any other type of camera?

For a tabloid...

Why not ? Should he feel resentment ?

What does Amaral think about that? He posed for it.

How does the interview with Luckman fit in? Luckman was very supportive of Amaral on the fact that this CCTV footage should have been examined.

He's a very nice boy.

Ask Luckman, he sounds the replying kind.

Whether is - or isn't - isn't the issue. Did he - or did he not - think that that CCTV could have revealed vital clues?

The PJ Coordinator in the Madeleine case, Dr Gonçalo Amaral, was pictured in front of a hotel's CCTV camera which he claims captured the image of the man carrying Madeleine on the night she disappeared.  Unfortunately though,  he claims that his officers failed to identify this camera and by the time he found it the hotel had deleted the recordings.

Mr Amaral was very clear about the significance of the hotel CCTV camera and was angry that because the Smiths delayed in coming forward the delay resulted in the video footage being lost.  It wasn't his officers fault that the film was lost.

It was Amaral's belief that the abductor walked past that hotel on his way to meeting the Smiths a few minutes later and would have been captured by the private CCTV camera.

You were arguing he accepted being photographed, weren't you ? I suggested he was a very nice boy and I was serious.
Now you're changing the issue !
I don't know if he thought the CCTV could "have revealed vital clues", I think he lamented more that no photograph of the group was made by the scientific police..
But I know what treatment tabloids do with the information they gather. So one better hears what people have to say than believes the tabloid soup.
